Eye witness account of the ugly incident had it that a band of unidentified terrorists attacked the venue of the free medical outreach organized by the Uli Global Ambassadors for Development Initiative (ULIGADI).
The witness who didn’t want his name in print told The Union Nigeria during the unfortunate incident, the perpetrators killed a police officer.
He said, “I don’t have much to say at the moment but I will discuss with the chairman to advise the house.
One officer died after the unfortunate incident. The second officer is at the hospital receiving medical attention.
I have spoken to him. I have my people with him. We are looking for the third officer who has since left Eziama. The recovery teams are underway to rescue him from the community.”
